They're Hanging Me Tonight

Lyrics

When I hear the rain a-comin' down, it makes me sad and blue
 Was on a rainy night like this, that Flo said we were through
 I told her how I loved her, and I begged her not to go
 But another man had changed her mind, so I said goodbye to Flo
 Alone within my cell tonight, my heart is filled with fear
 The only sound within the room, is the falling of each tear
 I think about the thing I've done, I know it wasn't right
 They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight
 They're hanging me tonight!
 That night he came and took my Flo, and headed in to town
 I knew I had to find this man, and try to gun him down
 As I walked by a dim café, and I looked through the door
 I saw my Flo with her new love and I couldn't stand no more
 I couldn't stand no more
 I took my pistol from my hip, and with a trembling hand
 I took the life of pretty Flo, and that good for nothin' man
 That good for nothin' man!
 I think about the thing I've done, I know it wasn't right
 They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight
 They're hanging me tonight
 
 When I hear the rain a-comin' down, it makes me sad and blue
 Was on a rainy night like this, that Flo said we were through
 I told her how I loved her, and I begged her not to go
 But another man had changed her mind, so I said goodbye to Flo
 Alone within my cell tonight, my heart is filled with fear
 The only sound within the room, is the falling of each tear
 I think about the thing I've done, I know it wasn't right
 They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight
 They're hanging me tonight!
 That night he came and took my Flo, and headed in to town
 I knew I had to find this man, and try to gun him down
 As I walked by a dim café, and I looked through the door
 I saw my Flo with her new love and I couldn't stand no more
 I couldn't stand no more
 I took my pistol from my hip, and with a trembling hand
 I took the life of pretty Flo, and that good for nothin' man
 That good for nothin' man!
 I think about the thing I've done, I know it wasn't right
 They'll bury Flo tomorrow, but they're hanging me tonight
 They're hanging me tonight
